What I love about videos like this is that everyone thinks Coney is just shitposting, but you can tell when someone doesn't know when they're talking about and are just saying something to rankle people up. Coney has examples and from what little competitive Smash I've watched, learned, and been involved with, his logic is consistent, it just sounds weird to someone on the outside. A lot of the examples people brought up were very basic or based on aesthetics, like how a lot of people wanted to suggest Incineroar for grappler just because he has a bunch of throws. Coney has a lot of experience and he's not afraid to say something that sounds weird if he genuinely believes it's true but will shoot down people who are just trying to be contrarian. Coney likes to rile people up and shoot them down, but he is speaking from an educated position. It's silly, but it all lines up. I think you'll learn a surprising amount from Coney if you assume a lot of what you think is just jokes is actual genuine knowledge.

This is really sweet but I must inform you that most people on the inside of smash, including those at top level and with years of experience, would tell you Incineroar is a grappler. People didn't say Incin because he has "a bunch of throws" - he literally only has one more throw than other characters. They said Incin because that throw is what his pressure revolves around, which is the core of a grappler. He is a bit of an outlier in Smash for being a grappler of normal size, but he still fits the archetype, just like Manon in SF6 is still obviously a grappler despite being normal size. Coney is just describing the traditional grappler, the Zangief archetype.

I think the best characters of each game perfectly exemplify smash's lack of clearly defined character archetypes. The reason the best characters are so good is because they can kind of just do whatever they want. Brawl meta knight is fast, has a shitload of jumps, and can glide. And that makes him really strong offensively, but that also makes him really strong defensively, and he can just choose to disengage if he wants. Smash 4 bayo could try to fish for a zero-to-death, or she could just wait for you to come to her and just kill you off a witch time combo. And steve can just do whatever the fuck he wants at all times. Smash is weird because the best characters aren't just the best characters of a given archetype. They're the best because they don't fall into an archetype

I definitely think Incineroar is more of a grappler than Brawl Dedede. What you're not understanding is that a grappler is not simply a character who's grab leads to good damage, a grappler is entirely built around their grab. They're usually slow and have good strike/throw mixes. Some other good examples of grapplers in Smash Bros would be Bowser and Ganondorf, who (at least at lower levels of play) often revolve around their command grab side-B. Combo grapplers are a sub-archetype that gets scary not because of their throw, but because of what the throw leads to, similar to Luigi.
@Masaru_kun7 ай бұрын
for the "brawler" archtype I actually think melee Falco is the best example. He tries to slow down rushdowns like Fox and Falcon, so he can win scrambles close-up. He relies on mix-ups and can't really kill in one combo like a Luigi. His laser is a zoning tool, but he has to be close to actually get damage and kills.

Steve to me has a pretty clear archetype design which is a trapper. His best move that his whole gameplan is centered around, blocks, is a trapping move. The problem is that the move is really poorly coded and no characters except Sephiroth were designed to deal with walls so most of the roster just gets shut down by him. The biggest determining factor of if you match up well against him is if your character can deal with blocks. Steve is really not good at being a rushdown character. A good Luigi, yeah, but his movement stats are too slow to be rushdown.

"Luigi" should genuinely be considered its own archetype.

“Luigi” characters actually do have a term in fighting games. One-Shot characters, if I remember right. Makoto in 3rd Strike and Nagoriyuki (at least in past seasons) are examples.

I think ultimate samus is at least a contender for the zoner category. Simply because her charge shot is so overtuned that it literally plays neutral for her, coupled with her obscene grab range and a massive fair to catch anyone jumping over the charge shots.
